Taking Care of Me

I cannot concentrate on anything but me this week. I am nurturing little Caren, as she’s right in front. The committee is pushing her forward for hugs and kisses And stuff. Do you know you can kiss yourself? Just kiss your hand and then gently push the Hand kisses all over your inner child’s face. I’ve been having a Caren week, and it’s Been so healing really. It’s weird that I am still Crying. The asthma is Back though, and it feels Like a boa constrictor Is crushing my chest, Then there’s that Bundle of pain at The base of my Neck. It’s Just Been a really Bad, sad, bad, sad week. Breathing Is a big deal. Breathe if you can. And sleep if you can. And love everyone you can. That's the key, but I guess my husband is right. sometimes I have to stop loving everyone else, and love me. That's harder, but imperative really.I'm hugging myself now, to practice up.
